What to give a fisherman for the New Year?

Are you choosing what to give a fisherman, but you don’t understand fishing at all? The article contains several dozen ideas: universal gifts from different price categories, options specifically for fans of spinning, feeder and carp fishing.

Universal gifts for fishermen

 

A headlamp is a faithful companion of any fisherman. Fishing in the pre-dawn hour, after sunset, closer to midnight is often the most productive, and you cannot do without an additional light source. Inexpensive flashlights with a low light output will illuminate a small space - just what you need to change baits, mix bait and do other work. Bright devices with a long illumination range will be needed if the fisherman often has to return in the dark to a distant parked car or get to a public transport stop.

 

Glasses

The eyes of any fisherman get very tired after a few hours on the water on a bright sunny day, and due to numerous glares, visual acuity decreases. Therefore, polarized glasses with UV protection will be an excellent gift. In addition, they protect the eyes from wind and dust, which is also not uncommon when fishing.

 

Scales

Every fisherman wants to know how much the caught trophy weighs, so scales in his backpack will definitely not be superfluous. Electronic devices show accurate values up to 10 g, are not afraid of water and take up little space in the bag.

 

Gloves

Warm gloves with open fingers that will protect your hands from the cold and wind and will not interfere with working with baits, hooks and other small objects are a must when fishing in winter and in the off-season. In summer, your hands also need protection - from the sun and friction against the cord, fishing line and handle of the rod during frequent casts. Summer models are made of durable sun-protective fabric that allows air to pass through and stretches well.

 

Thermos

Time flies when fishing, and the easiest way not to freeze is to drink aromatic coffee, tea or rosehip infusion. In summer, on the contrary, you want to cool off with an ice-cold fruit drink. Thermoses will help maintain the temperature of the drink. If you are going alone, options with a volume of less than 1 liter will be enough for you. If you are going fishing with family or friends, take a closer look at larger models. Also pay attention to food thermoses with a wide neck. They are convenient for carrying hot soup or mashed potatoes with a cutlet on a fishing trip in winter, so that you can have a full lunch between bites and landing.
